Fuzziness, uncertainty, vagueness, possibility, and probability in natural language
Victor Raskin, Julia M. Taylor · 2014
The paper reviews the status of fuzziness, vagueness, uncertainty, and probability in natural language with an emphasis on: aspects of natural language that pertain to each of the four phenomena; methods of their modeling and representation; computational treatment of these phenomena in natural language and information processing. The main thrust of the paper is the procedure for calculating the predominant type of uncertainty for a NL sentence.
